Seattle Children's Pharmacy serves young patients, from newborns through teens. Our pediatric pharmacists have special training in using medicines with growing children, who can react differently than adults to drugs. We advise healthcare providers on selecting and administering medicine. We work with them on monitoring children to make sure their drug therapy is as safe and effective as possible. We also work with you to help you use your child's medicine carefully.
We have pharmacies at our main campus in Seattle and at the Bellevue Clinic and Surgery Center, so you can fill your child's prescription on-site. (Prescription must be written by a Children's physician.)

The pharmacist was extremely helpful in locating "take home" instructions for us as well as recommending a lower dosage of medication more appropriate for my daughter's weight.
